Warnings: A couple of swear words. Relationship between two men
They never knew 4
"I really am Connor McLeod. Was that what you wanted to hear me say or would you like me to tell you that my real name is Hades," Connor said sarcasm lining his every word
"I know your Connor. You have to be my cousin," Duncan said
"Why do I have to be your cousin," Connor asked
"You look so much like him," Duncan said
"Everyone has a double. What makes you think that I am your cousin," Connor asked
"You have the same weird sounding accent," Duncan said
"Was this cousin born in the French countryside," Connor asked
"No he was born in the Scottish Highlands, but he always a French accent," Duncan said
"Connor I want your word that you will answer this next question truthfully," Methos said. Methos knew that the Connor he had married would never break his word.
"You have my word," connor said with the whisper of a smile.
"Are you married," Methos asked
"Yes," Connor replied
"Are you the same man I married ten years ago," Methos asked
"Ten years ago I was very different person," Connor said
"To me Connor you are the same person I married. It doesn't matter if you have changed," Methos said
"Connor that's a name I've gone by for the last 480 years, but that isn't my real name," Connor said
"What is your real name," Methos asked
Before Connor could answer Duncan spoke up.
"I bloody knew it. How could you do this to me Connor? What kind of person would are you," Duncan said viciously pushing Connor backwards with his hands.
Stumbling backwards slightly Connor said in a tone of voice that was calmer than he felt; "Why does everything always have to be about you."
"You forced me to kill you," Duncan said
Mimicking Duncan's choice of words Connor said; "Forced you to kill me. You sound like a child Duncan. I didn't force you to do anything. When you killed me you enjoyed it."
"How dare you say I enjoyed killing you? It was the worst experience of my life," Duncan said
While Duncan had been talking Joe quietly ushered the rest of the bars patrons out of the bar and put the closed sign on.
"Duncan you pulled out a gun and shot me. Then you killed me with a smile on your lips," Connor said
"How can you stand there and tell such bald faced lies," Duncan asked
"Duncan stop acting like the eternal boy scout you think you are. I know exactly how you killed me," Connor said
"I spent weeks grieving for your loss cousin," Duncan said
"Other people may believe what you are saying but I know what really happened on that rooftop. You haven't grieved for one single moment," Connor said
Methos moved away from Duncan and went to stand next to Connor.
"I care about you cousin," Duncan said
"All you care about is your own reputation," Connor said
"You're my cousin, ex-teacher and now your treating me like I don't even mean anything to you," Duncan said
"Duncan the only time I even considered you to be a friend was when you were my student," Connor said holding Methos hand for some much needed support.
"You're my cousin does that not mean anything to you," Duncan said
"It used to," Connor said
"How can you treat him like this Connor can't you see how upset he is," Joe asked coming to the defence of his friend
"Duncan is not upset. He just putting on an act fro your benefit Joseph," Connor said
"Its not an act," Joe said
"You obviously don't know Duncan very well. Do you honestly believe that he killed young Richie because he was possessed by a demon? Duncan killed Richie simple because he wanted to," Connor said
"Is that true," Joes asked while he slowly walked away from Duncan and went to stood nest to Methos.
"N-No," Duncan said in a slightly hesitant tone of voice.
"Why would you kill Richie," Methos asked.
"He damn well deserved it. Richie had this incredible act for attracting immortals to me. After a few years the kid deserved to die," Duncan said vehemently
"You killed your own student for that simple reason," Joe asked completely disgusted that Duncan had killed the young immortal.
"Yeah and I enjoyed it," Duncan said with a slight smirk.
"What happened to you Duncan? When did you become such a manipulative bastard," Methos asked
"Tessa dying and Richie becoming an immortal," Duncan said
"That's your reason," Connor asked well aware that Duncan was close to breaking point.
"It's a good enough reason," Duncan said
"Its not the truth." Connor said as he let go of Methos hand and walked closer to Duncan
"I can't handle the fact that I'm always losing people. That I'm always second best and you never returned my advances," Duncan said
"Duncan it is about time you grew up and joined the real world. You're an immortal did you really think that having such a long life wouldn't be without its disadvantages" Connor asked
Before either Joe or Methos could react Duncan rushed forward and threw a vicious left hook at Connor. Connor caught Duncan's fist in mid swing and tightly held onto it until he heard something snap.
"Did you really have to resort to this," Connor asked while tightly holding Duncan's hand.
"You deserve it," Duncan said
Connor let go of Duncan's hand and said in a tone of voice that was so calm it was deadly "If Joseph wasn't your friend and Methos didn't like you, I'd kill you were you stood."
"You wouldn't," Duncan said
"Just try my Duncan. You have pushed all of my buttons and thanks to you I'm on my very last nerve. You fucking lucky that you're still breathing," Connor said
"Go ahead an kill me," Duncan said
Without another word Connor placed his hand on Duncan's chest. There was a brilliant flare of white light and they were gone.
"Where did they go," Joe asked in a shocked tone of voice.
Ï have no idea, but I wouldn't like to be in Duncan position right now," Methos said
The end (possibly)
